The Heritage Papers wallpaper collection Farrow & Ball

The Heritage Papers wallpaper by Farrow & Ball: leaves, floral tendrils and Gothic

The Heritage Papers wallpaper brings together three patterns that each choose their own subject: vine leaves, sweet pea tendrils and Gothic architecture. What binds them is the light background with green and grey tones and a repeat that flows seamlessly across the wall. Within that, the scale grows from small and dense to large and architectural. The images show where these belong: an old interior with a carved door frame, a bathroom with white panelling and a study with a bay window. This way, within one collection, you can choose between calm in the background and a wall that does the talking.

Patterns in The Heritage Papers wallpaper collection

The Vine Leaf wallpaper is the smallest and densest pattern. Stylised vine leaves in grey-green with light veins are scattered across a light grey background, without a clear direction. Up close you see leaves, from a distance a calm texture. With Sweet Pea wallpaper, sweet pea tendrils climb upwards in vertical strips, drawn naturalistically with green leaves, curling tendrils and light pink flowers on off-white. These strips give a wall rhythm without making it busy. The Gothic wallpaper opts for stone instead of plants. Gothic arches, columns, pinnacles and tracery stand in a zigzag over vertical stripes, executed in grey-blue and cream. Shadows in the motif give the architecture depth, as if you're looking at a sculpted façade.

How to use The Heritage Papers by Farrow & Ball in your home

The images show how well these patterns work together with classic elements. Vine Leaf forms a calm background for dark wood, a chair with a cane seat and an old panelled door. Sweet Pea above white panelling ties in with the green behind the bathroom's sash window. Gothic asks for space: on a curved wall around a bay window, the zigzag really comes into its own. Let the scale of your room determine which Farrow & Ball wallpaper you choose.
